Need some inspiration for photographing and scrapbooking birthdays? Listen in as I share about birthday scrapbooking.

Today we are celebrating 7 years of Digital Scrapbooking HQ. In honor of that we're talking all about birthdays today (we've even got presents!)

Birthday Scrapbooking Tips

As the mother of 4 little ones I have lots of practice documenting birthdays. Here are some of my best suggestions for birthday scrapbooking.

  • Basic pen and paper are key to my process. I keep notes of the party preparations and who's coming. I usually keep that in my planner.
  • Delegate someone else to take photos during the party. This allows you time to manage the party.
  • Choose the tallest relative to take pictures and record the happy birthday cake moment.
  • Try to get detail shots and group photos from the event.
  • Most people don't struggle with too few photos from a birthday party. Typically we have way to many! This article will help you organize those birthday pics.
  • One more tool to help you organize photos is the Auto Curate feature in Photoshop Elements Organizer! Learn how here.

    • Another great resource is templates with lots of photo spots. I love Katie the Creative Lady's templates. Or you can useLaurie Callison's Click or Drag templates from our store.
    • If your photos are on your phone you may consider using the Project Life App. It's an easy way to get a great collection of photos on one page.
    • Photoshop Elements 2018 review
    • Set yourself up for success
